I like the way they look and feel and what sold me was the lifetime guarantee.

Not yet, still pretty sharp. Course I don't smoke on a daily basis. I hear Xikar will sharpen them for free for life. Course it maybe not a hard task to do your self with a awl like file.

I broke down and spend a ton of money on cbid last week. Ended up with about 35 cigars, a herfador, and a stinky for about $145 shipped. Need to stay away for awhile now.

Tengel78,
Word of caution on that herfador. Be gentle with the latches. I had a 5-count in the blaze orange, but it didn't last very long at all. I love my old, plain black ones, and I liked the concept here - the color and rubberization. However, the way the latches are attached on/through the rubber coating doesn't allow for them to last. First latch came off after about 5 uses. I continued to use it with one for just a few more uses until that one came off, too.
The latches break right off with the sealant. Good luck - be gentle.

Thanks for the warning Dave. I'll be gentle with it.

I've started what may be the gentle portion of a slide... in my first week on CigarBid I bought 4 x 5 packs... Perdomo 826 Slow-Aged Churchill Maduro (the reason I signed up to begin with), Tiera Del Sol Toro Maduro, Tiera Del Sol Churchill Natural, and Bahia Blu B500 Robusto. I would have added a Perdomo 826 Slow-Aged Natural and one of the cheap-o Perdomo branded 20-30 count humis had they been available within my weekly shipping window...

This happened to mine too, but mine is straight up black, I just put them back on when they come off they seem to snap right into place, so idk

Saving up for a 40 ct.
